How to choose fresh ingredients
How to choose pork belly
- The elasticity is an important sign when choosing pork.
- Press your finger into the meat and release it. If it does not leave a fingerprint, the meat has quick elasticity and a pink color, that is fresh meat.
- If the meat leaves a fingerprint, it is spoiled meat.
How to choose okra
- You should buy fresh, young okra with small size. Do not choose large ones as they are mature okra, which is not tasty.
- Do not choose soft pods or those with blemishes on the outside.
How to make Pork rolled with okra in honey sauce
-
Prepare the ingredients
Okra bought should be cut off the ends and soaked in a diluted saltwater solution, then rinsed thoroughly with water.
The pork belly slices should be soaked in saltwater for about 10 minutes, using your hands to rub the meat to remove any blood and impurities, which helps to reduce the odor.
Rinse with clean water and let it drain. Sprinkle 1 gram of salt and pepper evenly on both sides of the meat, marinate for 10 minutes.
Tip: If you can’t find sliced pork belly, you can buy a whole piece of meat, prepare it, and then cut it into thin, wide slices vertically. The number of meat slices should correspond to the number of okra pieces you plan to roll.

Roll the pork
Lay the thin slice of meat on the cutting board, place the okra inside. Roll the meat tightly. Continue rolling until all the ingredients you have are used up.
-
Dipping the batter and pan-frying the pork
After wrapping the meat, evenly coat 30 grams of potato starch on the surface of the meat.
Place a pan on the stove, add 1 tablespoon of cooking oil. Add the rolled meat and fry on medium heat to prevent burning.
Note: keep the folded edge of the meat facing down to prevent the wrap from coming undone.
Pan-fry the meat until it turns a beautiful golden color, then remove it to a plate to drain the oil.

Making the sauce and finishing
To make the sauce, mix 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar, 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, and 1 tablespoon of honey in a bowl. Stir well.
Pour the prepared sauce into the pan and heat it again. Wait until the sauce just starts to boil, then add the rolled okra with meat, reduce the heat, and use chopsticks to roll it evenly so that the okra is well coated in the sauce. Cook for about 1 minute, stirring continuously, then turn off the heat.
